I bought my first PC there for $2700, a IBM Aptiva. Financed, it had Windows '95 and a HP 660 inkjet printer. It would have taken 30 minutes to download a photo of Heather at work.
You didn't have a Trash-80 before that?

Radio shack wasn’t as GOOD when I was shopping age, but they were still around.

Nope, I played around with some ancient stuff in 1976 when I went to DeVry Tech to study computer design.........I quit, couldn't get into memorizing resistor codes. Reel-to-reel and giant floppy drives back then.

Back then DeVry was a good school for 2 year technical degrees. Right after the name change from Bell & Howell.
UPS liked to hire students from there because they tended to graduate and move on to other jobs instead of becoming career part timers.

The federal government has announced a $103,265 fee for each of the 85,000 H-1B workers annually imported by companies.Companies now employ at least 730,000 non-immigrant H-1B contract workers in jobs needed by American college graduates, helping to spike the unemployment and underemployment rates for computer science graduates up to 26 percent.
Good
I never wanted a nice route.
If you have something nice, that means that they have control over you. Something they can take away when it's convenient.
I kept my route because it made me a lot of money, and that's the only reason I was there.
What control? It was a bid route.
